How Burnheal Cream works

Burnheal Cream is a combination of two antiseptic medicines: Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Silver Nitrate. Chlorhexidine Gluconate works by binding strongly with skin and killing infectious microorganisms. Hence, it effectively cleans out wounds and burns to prevent them from getting infected. Silver Nitrate stops bacteria from producing folic acid, a nutrient required for bacterial multiplication. This kills the bacteria and treats skin infection due to burns.
